Edgar Friendly: You see, according to Cocteau's plan I'm the enemy, because I like to think, and I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech and freedom of choice. I'm the kind of guy who'd walk into a greasy spoon and wonder -- "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecued ribs with the side order of grave fries?" I WANT high cholesterol. I wanna eat bacon and butter and BUCKETS of cheese, okay? I want to smoke Cuban cigars the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section. I want to run through the streets naked with green jello all over my body reading playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly might feel the urge to, okay, pal? I've SEEN the future. Do you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake, and singing "I'm an Oscar Meyer Wiener."

"Whenever I'm caught between two evils,
I take the one I've never tried."
Mae West (1892-1980)

'If you can't take the heat,
get out of the kitchen!"

Well, I've never been a great cook, so I got out of the kitchen, on some of the other sites (which will remain unnamed). I like to just learn and laugh and ponder. Fighting really is no fun to me.
